Check my headers. I suppress the X-Mailer header by the configuration option and use this macro: %SetHeader("User-agent","TB/%THEBATVERSION (by RITlabs)")%- To insert my own variant. I am proud to use TB, but have to acknowledge that some very poorly educated ISPs out there are behaving irresponsibly. -- Cheers -- //.arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator and fellow end user TB! v3.81.07 Beta on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 '
